Said Trump, quoted in "Will There Be Another Debate? Trump Isn’t Sure. The former president suggested immediately after the debate and in a call-in to Fox News on Wednesday morning that he was not inclined to agree to another" (NYT).
Immediately after the debate, Harris's campaign said, "Vice President Harris is ready for a second debate. Is Donald Trump?"
Being "ready" for a rematch isn't the exactly the same thing as demanding a rematch. I assume both sides are spinning the first debate by saying things about a possible second debate, and they are in the middle of negotiating the terms and generating new material to use to insult each other.

If they were to do another (God forbid - I'm tired of listening to my husband rant at the tv and my strong underdog bias makes ME take the bait whenever he gets started on what a bad debater Trump is), oh please, please, someone convince Trump to do some prep. Mr. President, repeat after me: "There you go again." Even that much would help.
They should "debate" on Rogan's podcast. We basically still do debates like it is Nixon vs. Kennedy. Let's bring debating into 2024.
It is hilarious that people think Harris won.
I look forward to seeing her gun collection. I also look forward to her closing the border today. And cutting taxes today. And supporting small businesses today.
Trump made a clear point and everyone heard it: Harris can do all of this garbage she promised right now.
But she wont do any of it. And all of the lies she told are going to be tied around her neck.
Tag team debating from Biden to Harris. Will Trump tag Vance? Will the Fourth Estate replace its JournoLists? Will the baby be aborted, cannibalized, sequestered? Stay tuned for this and other wicked solutions.
It is quite interesting to see the hysteria crescendo. By that logic Mitt Romney would be President in 2012.
Trump still has this, and I actually think Kamala Harris might want another debate. Well, let's see what happens.
The 911 calls about illegals eating pets are going to be getting a lot of attention over the next several days.
Do you all think Kamala has a 9mm or a 12 gauge? Is she a Glock Girl? Inquiring minds want to know.
He was on the floor after the debate
She was back in her glass case
Where is the customary Vice Presidential debate?
Achilles clicking his ruby slippers and repeats over and over "there's no place like home..."
And it begins. Everyone is pointing out how many lies Kamala and ABC told during the debate.
You just can't win with lies.
"Once he was there, however, he should have shut down Muir and Davis by rejecting their interference and pointing out how highly inappropriate their actions were. Instead, he let them get away with it all night long. Hardcore Trump fans aren't going to like this, but Ron DeSantis was really good at calling B.S. on moderators in the primary debates. "
-Kroozer.
Kamala Harris won the debate because the bar was so low for her, and because Trump is his own worst enemy.
No debates after voting starts. That happens in 10 days. If people want Fall debates they should stop the voting starting so early.
The media want a debate to get clicks and eyeballs. Trump should do podcasts and rallies. The goal here should be to kill the MSM wing of the Democrat party.
If there's another debate is should be on Fox with Tyrus and Kat Timpf moderating.
Can you give me the points where you think Kamala won the debate? Was it when she claimed she would solve the border problem and she hasn't been in charge of that for 3 years? or was it when she claimed she wouldn't take everyone's guns because she was a gun owner? Or when she used the "fine people" hoax?
Just curious which lie you thought won her the debate.
Vote early and vote often! Thank you chi com covid!
Exactly. Yet, I m not sure it still wasn’t a strategic victory for Trump. He behaved like who he is, a thin-skinned over- confident purveyor of exaggerations and platitudes. But she proved she’s equally unlikable and even more dishonest. The undecideds might well decide he’s the safer bet. I hope so.
The only guns Harris owns are the ones carried by her security team and everyone knows it.
Achilles question to Howard will send Non-combat "vet" Howitzer Howard scrambling for the exits.
Trump was heard loudly and clearly by those voters closest to the problems caused by the New Soviet Democraticals and being felt and experienced daily by the poor, working poor and middle classes.
Groups that exclude the typical Althouse blog denizens and the NeverTrumpers and leftover DeSantis delusionists.
We need reasonable gov control.
I am a fan of Trump. I know he has flaws, I am not saying he is perfect, but I am an affirmative voter for Trump. That said the one thing that I think Trump does better than anyone possibly ever in US Politics, is counter punch.
I think Trump has a hard time taking advice from other people, and why not his personal instincts have been the right thing to do the majority of the time. Now that he has had a debate with Kamala, I would expect he would be much tougher in debate number 2.
And for what it is worth, I think the way Trump goads Kamala into another debate is by claiming to not want one.
Maybe Trump is tired and wants Kamala to win.
Ron DeSantis' positions as a Paul Ryan suckup while in congress (support for TPP and voting to give obama Fast Track Authority, etc) would have completely and utterly "Romney-fied" any potential DeSantis campaign.
DeSantis couldnt even out-maneuver Haley despite $250M in globalist cash.
"Can you give me the points where you think Kamala won the debate?"
If you need help from the moderators, you didn't win the debate.
First do Walz-Vance
That is the best part of all of this. Kamala "won" because ABC was clearly dishonest and biased. When Kamala wasn't lying Muir was.
All the Desantis supporters agree of course. They refuse to remember the last 40 years of Republican history.
Maybe it was when Trump pointed out that Kamala was negotiating with Putin 3 days before he invaded Ukraine and Kamala swallowed a goose?
It wouldn't surprise me if Harris has both a gun and a permit. At a certain level of fame, there is a distinct self-preservational fear response,, and almost all of those people have had nasty interactions at one time or another. She has security - now - but I bet she's had more than one unpleasant encounter during her career, considering how many people she prosecuted unfairly. Second, positions on gun control have almost nothing to do with individual motivations of self-preservation. And Harris could care less about gun control when it comes to her safety. This is another feature of fame.
I watched almost all of it, and wasn't surprised by anything. They both dodged questions to push their hobby-horses, and Muir and Davis acted like the good little apparatchiks they are, leaning on the scales as expected.
I still intend to hold my nose and vote against the DC Blob.
At the end of the day the talk is about Trump so he lost the debate.
Trump had one job - to paint Harris as out of touch with Americans on the issues they care about. He failed to do that. Sure, Harris had loads of help but that does not absolve Trump. He went down the crowd size, January 6th, Haitians eating cats rabbit holes.
When asked about J6 he should answer that it is in the past but what is in the present is the Biden/Harris inflation has reduced the average America’s pay by 20%
He should not have taken the bait on crowd size. It is a stupid topic that nobody cares about except for Trump.
Instead of talking about people eating cats he should have discussed how the flood of Haitians in Springfield has destroyed the fabric of live in Springfield.
The tRump Swabs can complain all they want but this was Trump being Trump - the guy 52% of voters despise.

Megyn is right! Stupid Republicans continue to debate with Democrat moderators. That needs to stop. If it does, Kamala won't debate.
At least you admit explicitly you are a Kamala supporter now. Trump's greatest accomplishment was to take the masks off of fake "conservatives" like this.
1. My favorite part was how, when Trump spoke, CNN gave Kamala a split-screen so she could mug, grin and shake her head.
2. If there's a 2nd debate, it better be on Fox.
LOL
The focus groups show Trump increasing his vote share and lead on specific core issues (economy, immigration) despite some observers thinking Trump did not do as well at the "debate part".
Thats because Trump already has a record as President that compares favorably to AMDG's New Soviet Democratical/lawfare allies. Nuance typically overlooked by NeverTrump Wannabe DeSantis Online Influencers like AMDG.
Second debate? Heels-Up got what she wanted/needed last night. She survived by prattling our her canned answered, sans word salads, and she flustered Don at several points.
No way will she agree to another debate.
Trump just did his second debate. Not his fault Harris wasn't the nominee when he did the first one.
FYI, even the Reuters focus group of undecided voters broke 2 to 1 for Trump with 1 remaining undecided.
This compares favorably to globalist backed DeSantis being unable to capture a single delegate in the republican primary...partially because of how horribly the DeSantis online supporters comported themselves during the campaign.
And that wont be forgotten by 2028.
I don't think either of them has much incentive to do another debate. I think Harris was helped marginally in that she easily cleared the bar set by Biden in the first debate, but a second debate isn't likely to do more, and she might get stuck with more neutral, professional moderators which could be problematic for her. Meanwhile, Trump didn't help himself particularly, but he's also an extremely well known quantity, so I doubt he lost any support. Another debate would likely just be more of the same, unless they get neutral moderators, in which case Harris would probably back out.
Per Drago @9:40, this was the point I was trying to make to my very upset husband: Trump wasn't talking to him (or me); he was talking to people in communities overstressed by thousands of illegal immigrants, to people whose purchasing power was already close enough to the edge that the price of gas and groceries is really hurting them, to people who wonder if there is a place for them in an American society that celebrates ersatz "diversity" of appearance and attraction but no longer celebrates real achievement and industry.
It doesn't matter, though. I find myself glumly conscious of the fact that - as I said on another thread a few days ago - intelligence and critical thinking are not required for voting (nor do I believe they should be under our supposedly shared value set even though it's tempting to consider an oligarchy of the bright), and half the population is on THAT side of the bell curve.
The moderators clearly won the debate. Trump should have said, "Who am I debating here? " But he didn't.
and needless to say, she would have been able to pin project 2025, to either haley or desantis
If she had, as Dan Bongino points out, there would be a "snapshot or soundbite" that shows her killer moves. There are no viral takes from last night. She isn't impressive. She didn't win over any new voters. She did reassure her base that its OK to keep hating and fearing Trump. A base that she shouldn't still be worrying about this late in the election process.
Yes, I noticed that, too.
Agree completely.
That did Kamala no favors by the way. She looked like an assclown.
she easily cleared the bar set by Biden in the first debate...
Sadly, you are correct. The bar was set at she's sentient.
As Achilles notes. I'm pretty sure our hostess just showed the error of this using a study of the 2016 debate. Nothing was learned.
Let me try this one again (1 of 20 or so that disappeared after posting and never came back FU Google):
Last night was a true fustercluck… I’ve never seen a debate where the mods were so obviously biased. But peeps know Trump and now also have some knowledge about Harris. She is a pathological liar. Trump is imperfect but he’s pretty fucking far from the train wreck she is.
Trump should be agreeable to another debate, but the moderators must be agreed upon… can’t be two fucking liar/Dem operatives like Muir and that smarmy bitch sidekick of his.
ABC even framed the two to make Harris appear taller than Trump. American voters must not accept this ridiculous crap. We have to do better, or these elections will become the forever farce these shitbird Democrats seem to prefer.
Trump will never debate her again. Of course she wants another chance to get in a few more punches.
No need to goad her into a second debate, SHE is the one calling for one. He won’t ever debate her again.
Maybe Kamala can bring her guns and show them off at the next debate.
Maybe the border wont be an issue in the next debate because Kamala fixed it!
So far Harris has done a friendly CNN interview with Walz at her side and an ABC debate with two moderators on her side. I seriously doubt we'll hear anything more from her other than stump speeches.
It'll never happen, but an actual debate sure would be nice. Joe Rogan's platform is the logical choice for a serious discussion of the issues, but sadly the days of real debates are long gone.
Inga's comments last night:
Kamala won! Kamala won! Oh Joy! Oh Joy!
Oh, ... I've pooped my pants, again.
You forgot both your meds and your Depends.
I agree. She was better than expected but had a lot of help.
Kamala prepared. She killed the Kackle. Almost eliminated the word salad. And she learned how to simper. My wife thought Kamala must have had some acting lessons during the prep.
Maynard was passed out on the couch after finishing a 5th of whiskey.
And now the inevitable retractions by hack lefty media publications begin to roll out....which they have to do given the irrefutable video and documentary evidence of the lefty media and kamala lies Inga The Russia Collusion Truther claims do not exist.
Here's Time Magazine today:
"Correction, Sept. 11
The original version of this story mischaracterized as false Donald Trump's statement accusing Kamala Harris of supporting “transgender operations on illegal aliens in prison” As a presidential candidate in 2019, Harris filled out a questionnaire saying she supported taxpayer-funded gender transition treatment for detained immigrants."
I hope Harris - and her team - think they won the debate. I want them to think that. And so should Trump. She won it huge!
Because the last thing the left should want is a 'confident' Kamala Harris running around the country talking off script.
If she likes debate so much why the hell is she avoiding the press?
Trump will never debate her again.
And if he does, will you finally STFU?
I will be impressed when she does a real press conference.
I guess she won the debate, but debate winners don't always win elections. Anyway, she didn't come across as especially focused, articulate or likable. She came across as more focused and articulate than the Kamala Harris of previous appearances. Also, she's younger than Joe Biden and not cognitively impaired other than the stupidity so you can see why Democrats are so enthused by presence and performance........I don't think she was much different than when she debated other Democrats back in 2020. No one was charmed or enthused back then. Democrats like her better than Trump, but not better than such charismatic figures as Rep. Nadler. He could have probably taken her in a primary.
From Tim Walz on X:
"Kamala Harris and I are both gun owners.
We’re not going to take away your Second Amendment rights — we’re going to prevent your kids from getting shot at school."
The first steps he proposes are universal background checks and 'Red Flag' laws. The likelihood that it will stop there is slim.
Oh hell no, Jim.
Did not Frank Zappa say, "weasels rip my flesh"? That was my takeaway regarding Trump in the debate against the MSM.
I suppose she won, but there's a difference between winning a debate and winning an election. She certainly impressed the moderators with her vast store of knowledge and wisdom. She had them totally convinced, Halfway through the debate they announced her as the winner......On the plus side, she's younger than Joe Biden and outside of the stupidity she's not cognitively impaired. The Democrats and MSM were enthused by her presence but that's only because she was arguing with Donald Trump. She's not more focused, articulate, or charming than she was in her debates back in 2020. If you recall, she impressed exactly nobody back then.
I will be impressed when USA PRESS does a real press conference.
“ Achilles question to Howard will send Non-combat "vet" Howitzer Howard scrambling for the exits.”
Is it Howard or Snagglepuss?
“She was better than expected but had a lot of help.”
Nominated for “Understatement of the Year”!
A SIG p226 in .40 cal. 12 round magazines are standard. She is violating California law.
